Oops

Slater isn't the eleven times world champ yet. The ASP have messed up and miscalculated.

To win he needs to get through one more heat or Owen Wright to lose. To lose he would need to not win another heat and Wright would need to win the the Search and Pipe.

Look for some make up scores for Slater.

This is a huge stuff up for the ASP. Kelly's win was getting mainstream publicity but now all the focus is on their inability to understand their own rule book.

With judging controversies, the mid year cut off causing angst, Bobbies rant and now this the ASP is not doing a good job of convincing surfers it is the best way to go.

Perhaps now that they awarded the title on the anniversary of Andy Irons death they will leave the contest on hold so they can make it 11 on 11/11/11 !

There have been a few lay days in a row because of bad weather. The rumour is Monday is the next go day.
